Most rain-sensing devices work by measuring a predetermined amount of rainfall before activating a switch that halts irrigation. During this accumulation time, the system will unnecessarily continue to water, which can present a particularly problematic scenario for conservation-conscious municipalities, businesses, and residences.

The Hunter Wired Rain-Clik Rain Sensor, equipped with built-in Quick Response Technology, offers a solution. This sensor can command a controller to shut off irrigation immediately when it starts to rain. The sensor can be mounted on an eave or a flat, vertical surface such as a wall or fence. Additionally, an optional gutter mount is available to install the sensor on the edge of a gutter.

The sensor's efficient design ensures that the system shuts down within 2 to 5 minutes of detecting rain and resets in 4 hours under dry, sunny conditions or 3 days when fully wet. Furthermore, the sensor kit simplifies installation, including 25 feet of 20 AWG sheathed, two-conductor, UL-approved wire. This sensor is compatible with most irrigation controllers that accept a normally closed sensor input, making it a versatile and reliable choice for various irrigation systems.

By addressing the limitations of traditional rain-sensing devices, the Hunter Wired Rain-Clik Rain Sensor provides a more effective solution for conserving water resources. Its quick response time and compatibility with a wide range of irrigation controllers make it an attractive option for environmentally conscious municipalities, businesses, and homeowners alike.
